Creating New Pages
You will not be able to create a new page unless you are logged in. To prevent duplication please check carefully that there isn't already a similar page where your content could be added.
To create a new page, you first have to create a link to the new page in an existing related page. Clicking on the
- Login
- Create an internal link in the text of the page you want to link to. Remember to include the appropriate namespace in the new page name. E.g. Tutorial:New Page. Save the change you've made.
- The new link will be highlighted red, click on the link and you will be taken to the editing space for the page you want to create.
- Put in your page title and sub-headings. Then add your content.
- Scroll to the bottom of the page to save the new content.
For each new page you create you will also have created a linked discussion page.
Crumb trails
You don't need to add a crumb trail yourself. The administrator will in time add this to your page to help users navigate between pages.However, if you wish to add a crumb trail to your own page, these have to be hard coded into the page content. These should mimic the structure used in other pages of a similar level within the particular namespace.
The basic code however is given below, you may cut and paste this code and edit the Page Names as necessary.
Crumb trail
[[Main Page|SASSA Home Page]] ⇒ [[NameSpace:Main|Name Space Home Page]] ⇒ [[NameSpace:2nd Order Page Name|Page Title]] ⇒ Title of this page
New links should be added as necessary.
Back button
<div style="align: left; float:left; margin-top: -1.25em; margin-bottom:3px; background-color: #f5faff; padding: .2em .6em; font-size: 130%; border: 1px solid #cee0f2;"><span style="font-size: larger; font-weight: bold;">←</span> '''Back to [[NameSpace:Page Name|Page title]]'''</div>
Forward button
<div style="float:right; margin-top: 0.0em; margin-bottom:3px; background-color: #cee0f2; padding: .2em .6em; font-size: 130%; border:1px solid #A3B1BF;"> '''[[NameSpace:Page Name|Forward: Page title]]''' <span style="font-size: larger; font- weight: bold;">→</span> <div style="clear:both"></div>
Formatting
- Below the crumb trail you should leave one empty line, then add a horizontal line (top right button in the editing page pane), followed by another empty line before putting in the page heading.
- Leave three empty lines between the end of your content and the code for the back browser button. Otherwise the button will float over your text.
- Leave an empty line between the back button and the forward button if one is being included.
